John Sweet

said this is the story
and then he died
and you think this shit is funny
and you’re probably right

you’re brought up to believe in
justice
and then the killer takes
his own life

leaves behind a pile of corpses
and a dozen movies-of-the-week and
if you have children
you no longer know where
                        they are

if you love this woman
next to you in the bed
it’s only by accident

it can be undone

you should know this by now
